Agartala, 31st October 2026 : In a significant breakthrough in the mysterious death of a young man whose body was found beside his motorcycle, Teliamura Police have arrested the prime suspect in connection with the case, which is suspected to have been made to look like a road accident.
The arrested person has been identified as Krishnadhan Sarkar. He was produced before the Khowai Court, where police sought seven days of remand for further interrogation. The arrest was made in connection with Teliamura Police Station Case No. 55/2026.
The incident dates back to the night of September 17, when Pranay Deb, alias June, a resident of Jaynagar in Teliamura, was found lying in a pool of blood beside his motorcycle near the Maiganga intersection on the Teliamura-Uttar Maharani Road.
Following information about the incident, fire service personnel rushed to the spot, rescued the critically injured youth and took him to Teliamura Sub-Divisional Hospital. However, the attending doctor declared him dead on arrival.
Initially, the circumstances surrounding his death raised questions over whether it was a road accident or something more sinister. Suspecting foul play, the deceased’s family subsequently lodged a written complaint with Teliamura Police, following which a murder case was registered and an investigation launched.
After conducting an extensive investigation, police arrested Krishnadhan Sarkar, marking a significant development in the case. Investigators are now expected to question the accused to establish the circumstances leading to Pranay’s death and determine whether others were involved.
The police investigation is continuing, while the family and local residents await further developments in the case.
